ON THE FAR PACIFIC.
remarkable Development Of the Resource
of the Pacific Coast.

remarkable Development Of the Resources
of the Pacific Coast.
California was u mining region orig
inally. Its first contribution to the
wealth Of the world was in the millions
of gold it poured into all the channels
of trade throughout the world. But
mining is now one of the least Of the
industries of the region beyond the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. Grain
growing, fruit-raising, stock-breeding,
are now the main sources of its wealth.
The mining boom produced unwhole-
some social disturbances. But the in
dustries on which the people of the
Pacific coast now depend are more
normal in their character 1t is mar
velously beautiful country, and in the
fulncss Of time will develop a race
equal to the very choicest people of
the East 1t is probably the most
wholesome country in the world. As a
sanitarium, there is nothing equal TO
Southern California TO be found any
where. 1t is destined TO support
dense agricultural population, for
small farms of fifteen and twenty acres
will produce rs much wealth in the
way of fruits, nuts, grapes, olives and
other valuable articles, as will hundreds
Of acres devoted to grain in otherparts
Of the country. Then, some time or
other, a mighty commerce will be de-
velopcd on the Pacific ocean. China,
Japan and Hindostan fairly swarms
with human beings whose commercial
wants have not yet been developed.
Then there is growing up in the British
colonies on the Pacific, tens Of millions
of Anglo-SaNons whose instinct it is to
Ego down 10 the sea in ships" The
vast trade Of the Atlantic ocean will in
the next century be far ontstripped by
the mightier commerce of the Pacific,
which Of course will enrich our de-
scendants on the American Pacific
coast. DcmOrcsrs MOuthiU

Mrs. NJ. A. Dauphin, Of Philadelphia, is
well known TO the ladies Of that city from
tho great good she has done by means OF
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
She writes Mrs. Pinkham OF recent in
terosting case. "a young married lady
came to me suffering with severe case OF
Prolapsus and liberation. She commenced
taking the Compound and in two months
was tliry restored. In proof Of this she soon
found herself in an interesting condition.
Influenced by foolish friends she attempted
to cvado tho responsibilities Of maternity.
After ten or twelve days she came TO me
again and she was indeed In a most alarm
ing state and suffered terribly. lgavc her
a tablespoonful Of the compound every
hour for eight hours until she fell asleep,
she awoSe much relieved and evidently
better. She continued taking the Com
pound, and in due season she became tho
mother OF a fino healthy boy. But for tho
timely use Of the medicine she believes her
life would have been lost.n

The Members at Work-A Pleasing and
Interesting Picture-Visitors.
The daily sessions of the interstate COM
merce commission present pleasant and in
teresting picture. The meetings are held in q
brand new room on the fifth floor of The Sun
building. Two lightning elevators, running
all the while, carry visitors right to the
doors of the room The commissioners sit at
a long table at one end Of the room, and Wis
itors sit scattered about the room where they
please. There is an abundance of light from
four big double windows looking ont to the
north over the whole city as far as the high
bluffs OF Mt Pleasant and Columbia heights.
At each end Of the room is bronze fireplace.
Here and there are handsome desks for the
use ct clerks and newspaper men. Judge
Cooley sits bolt upright at the east end Of the
table, and presides over the bearings A pair
OF shining gold spectacles sit astride his long
nose, most Of the time slipping low down, as
though he had forgotten they were there.
Judge Cooley swears the witnesses calls for
whoever has asked to be heard, asks ques-
tons and now and then cuts short an irrele-
want line OF argument With curt but clearly
expressed objection Next TO him on his right
sits Mr.. Morrison, who has for q seat mate On

son takes an active interest In all that is said,
and asks questions frequently. Tne more in

Death Among the Poor

One Of the most widely discussed OF recent
statistical statements IS a paper by Mr..
Humphreys before the Royal Statistical
society, giving a mass OF coilated figures to
show that death, so far from being no re-
spscter Of persons, is the greatest snob Of all
He demonstrates that poor peoples children
find measles ten times as fatal as do those OF
the rich. typhus five times as fatal. convul-
sions thirteen times and scarlet fever twice.
In the matter OF adults, be shows that the
rich and Idle people live the longest OF all,
and professional men next, while hard work
everywhere shorte0s life. The figures are
very curious and suggstive.-New Orleans

GyILDREN'S NOTIONS.

\ A little four-year-old of my acquaint-
